This was one of the coolest products at NAMM that I saw.
I was not overly impressed with their OM sized guitar but the Rider series and the Uke blew me away.

I just ordered on of the Nylon riders from Al and Dave and Kim Keller are both getting ukes.
If could play a uke worth a damn I would be grabbing one of those also but thankfully I gave up on that particular instrument!

Oh, they weight about 1.5 pounds for the uke and about 3 pounds for the nylon.

Yeah these things are way cool. I was alerted "You GOT t'go see the carbon fiber uke". First stop that I made in the whole damn show and it was all of ONE strum and I was convinced. Light as a feather, played like a dream and the sound was un freaking believable. This thing is the "Q" of the ukulele world! The guitars are extremely nice as well, but I couldn't take my hands off the damn uke. It will be a wonderful day when it arrives. I'm not exactly sure the details but I think Al is or has got himself set up as a dealer so definately contact him to check these things out. I'm sure Stephen, Kim and I will have plenty to report when they arrive.
